This quest for bigger stuff doesn’t end with food, though, as evidenced by this map compiled by Estately. Portraying what each state has that’s bigger than in any other state across the country, it is definitely an exercise in American excess. The real estate firm with a penchant for data probed Guinness World Records to find what each state can call its native gargantuan gem, and predictably, things get weird while perusing this map.

Let’s start with Texas. The Lone Star State is apparently the home of “the largest gathering of people dressed like Turkeys” in American history. This congregation of people as birds took place on November 24, 2011, and saw 611 Texans dawn their finest plumage in a YMCA turkey trot. If there were any European tourists present they probably ran away screaming into the nearest terminal for international departures.

Moving northwest-ward, Montana loves balls. The state has the biggest testicle festival in the United States, an annual bacchanal in which people chow down on bull testicles and guzzle beer. Florida keeps it predictable with the largest collection of "flamingo-related items," which is probably resting on an a retiree's front lawn somewhere sunny and humid. Oklahoma is a cruel place for an exotic animal, being that it holds the Guinness World Record for the single largest dose of LSD given to an elephant (it died).

Rhode Island, the smallest state in the union, only has room for a big ass sock, while New York carries on America’s obsession with contracting diabetes by harboring the country’s biggest butter sculpture.

Needless to say, there's no clear cut winner here. The United States is clearly home to some remarkably big stuff that doesn’t need to be as big as it is. Except for Delaware, which doesn’t hold a record for having the biggest of anything.
